Pays $800,

takes the same time as a solo.

We could do it together.

She hasn't even

gotten naked yet.

You're already hitting on her?

No.

All right, check yourself out.

Hi, cutie.

You stopping by on your way home

from school?

Well, you can stay with us

until your parents

come pick you up.

Is this your first time

shooting for BOD?

Yeah.

You're so sweet, such a sweet,

innocent little girl.

Why don't you introduce yourself

to everyone watching?

Hi, I'm Cherry.

Cherry...

You're gonna lose

your cherry today.

How exciting.

A little birdie told me

you like to be watched.

I don't mind.

Of course you don't mind.

You're a beautiful, hot,

gorgeous girl,

and you like attention, right?

A little bit.

Oh, yeah.

Otherwise, you wouldn't be

looking at us like that.

Why don't you spread your legs,

give us something to look at

while we talk?

You're a naughty girl.

I think you're trying

to get us turned on.

Give me a close-up.

Why don't you touch yourself?

You know you want to.

Okay, go wide.

Oh, you can't help yourself?

You're so f***ing hot.

I know that feels good,

doesn't it?

We're not gonna let you cum yet,

though, not yet.

There's still plenty of time

until you have to go

do your homework.

We want to see you strip.

Just do it really slow.

Entertain us, and then

maybe we'll let you cum.

You're so hot.

Look at your sexy bra,

naughty little schoolgirl.

Oh, my God.

You're so beautiful.

Your ass is so hot.

The anticipation.

Oh, my God.

You're a work of art.

And cut.

Thank you.

Nice.

Thanks.

That was beautiful.

It was really good.

Thank you.

Really.

Thank you.

You live around here?

Yeah, I don't live

too far away.

Well, I hope we get to work

together again.

Me too.

It was a lot of fun. Thank you.

Hey.

What are you reading?

Just a magazine.

Oh, arts.

Geisha exhibit

over at the Banks.

Do you come here

looking for girls who read?

No, I just wanted to apologize

for the other night.

Don't worry about it.

You're not the first group

of frat guys to come in

and make asses

out of yourselves.

I'm a little old to be

a frat guy.

Apparently not.

Are you gonna have a drink?

There's a minimum.

Sure, your choice.

Yeah?

My choice.

So you should really go see

that exhibit.

It's great in person.

It's just a magazine

that somebody left lying around.

Yeah, but you can read.

Yeah, I can read.

Nice.

Do you want another one?

I won't spit in it this time.

Oh, sure.

I thought we were going

to the movie tonight.

I told you. I'm sorry, okay.

I forgot.

But I'm just gonna be gone

for a couple of hours, okay?

Let's just do something

tomorrow.

I'm working at the bookstore

tomorrow.

Well, we can plan something

for when you finish.

Okay?

I'll be waiting for you

like a damsel in distress.

We'll can go to a movie,

or you can finish telling me

about Anna Karen-nina.

Ka-ren-in-nah?

Ka-rin...

I'm tired.

Someone's got a date.

Yeah, I'm going to a party.

I don't really know

how to dress for it,

so I borrowed this

from somebody at work.

Well, bring me the leftovers.

I will.

Hey, your mom left a message

last night

at, like, 2:
0 in the morning,

and she said

she wants to visit.

I'm sorry.

Oh, no. No, it's fine with me.

I mean, I'll take her dancing.

No, you don't need to do that.

Well, have a great night.

Thank you.

You too.

- Okay, bye, guys.

- Bye.

Well, you said

that it was a party,

but you didn't say

it was this kind of a party.

Well, some people only have

this kind of a party.

Francis.

My baby's finally arrived.

The parties

I've thrown for him...

He's finally shown up

to one of mine.

You must be Angelina.

Yeah, hi.

Yeah, hi.

This is Mrs. Larchmont,

the chairwoman

of the acquisitions committee

and the proud sponsor

of this exhibition.

Oh, cool.

And proud mother

of this handsome boy.

You didn't tell me that.

Well, it's really something.

Where did it all come from?

Well, this is the most

expensive exhibition

in the history of the museum,

cost three husbands.

Francis says that you work

at a strip club.

Oh, you've got to be

kidding me.

Well, actually, I'm working

somewhere else now.

That's right.

Well, I better head over

to the Rodin court.

The mayor's stopping by

to pick up a check.

Okay, good to meet you.

I'm sorry.

About what?

That I told her

where you worked.

I... I liked it.

What, that I told her that

you worked at a strip club?

Well, you know,

you didn't hide me.

All right, come on.

I didn't bring you here

to introduce you to my mom.

I want to show you something.

Does this look familiar?

From the magazine.

This one's my favorite.

It's about ambition.

Did you ever hear

about the butterfly

who fluttered its wings

in Tunisia

and caused a tsunami

on the other side of the world?

Yeah, I've heard that.

Well, here's some

butterfly wings.

Okay.

All right.

So yeah, just after the war,

the Japanese artists embraced

the pop movement of the West,

but then in the '70s,

they started reverting back

to more traditional techniques,

like...

Well, as if they were searching

for some connection to the past

that had been lost

before, you know,

the whole world invaded.

How do you know so much

about this stuff?

Biography.

And I studied art history.

I...

Studied painting for a bit,

but I wasn't any good,

so I quit.

Oh, I'm sure

that you were just fine.

Well, that's what

my mother said.

She wished that she could just

hang me up on walls.

Well, why did you

stop painting?

Well, I had a teacher,

who said that

if you want to be an artist,

you have to struggle,

face criticism,

knock on doors

for about ten years

to know if you even had

any talent,

and that's if talent

even existed.

Maybe it was just persistence.

So I decided to go into law.

I think that's sad.

It's good to know your strengths

and your limitations,

'cause if you know

your limitations,

then you can work within them.

So juries love me.

Yeah, I don't think I could

ever make a decision like that.

Well, we make decisions

like that every day.

So how do you feel?

Like I've been out all night.

Do you ever paint now?

No, my clients would get angry

if I did something like that.

But you have time

for strip clubs

and fancy parties and me.

Yeah, well, you make time

for the important things.

I want to see your paintings,

your most recent ones.

My most recent ones

are ten years old.

Ten years ago, I was...

In third grade, I think.

Look at you now, all grown up.

Where have you been?

I met the nicest guy.

Let me help you with that.

Thank you.

You ready to do this?

I guess so.

You guess?

Yeah.

Yeah, I'm ready.

That's good.

How does she look?

- Hi.

- Beautiful.

Is there a medical

professional in the building?

I don't feel so good.

Break her in gently.

Do you do boy-girl?

I haven't.

I haven't decided yet.

I'm all the man

she needs today.

Come on, Cherry Pie,

let's go make a movie.

Let's go.

Hey, want some help?
